About Organics

When you hear the word organic, you might think of all the things that we DO NOT support; things like factory farms, antibiotics and hormones, genetically modified organisms, and synthetic fertilizers.

But could you name some of the things that we DO promote? You might be surprised to know that the list includes not just animal welfare and genetic diversity, but also local food systems, human health, renewable resources, and soil fertility.

Organic is a holistic approach to food that considers all aspects of the ecosystem, including soil organisms, insects, plants, animals, and people. It is about living in balance and harmony with the environment. The more informed we are about the food we eat and how it is grown and processed, the more likely we are to end up with a food system that benefits all life on this planet.
